20 Most Recent Marley HBB1004 Electric Baseboard Heater Questions & Answers

Electric baseboard heaters heat by radiant heat. This mean the heater is heating the metal of the heater first which causes expansion of the metal. This will cause popping metal sounds becouse it is heating up. When it kicks off, by the thermostat, it starts to cool which causes contraction of metal. This will also cause noise. Most all base board heaters I have installed and worked on does this. Sorry there is little to nothing you can do. :)

More than likely, the ticking is caused by the heating element ... expanding and shrinking as it gets hot and then cools off. You might get rid of some of it if you will gently lift the element and insert a small piece of fiberglass between the element and the element rest. If this noise annoys you ... maybe you can turn the radio up? :-) Don't use any other kind of material for this job.

I hope you find this suggestion helpful ...

it may be a normal sound, metal expands when heated

Short cycling refers to a condition where a heater turns on and off frequently, rather than staying on for an extended period of time. There are a few possible reasons why a Marley wall heater might be short cycling. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue:

1. Check the air filters: If the air filters are dirty, they can restrict air flow to the heater, causing it to shut down. Clean or replace the air filters if necessary.
2. Check the thermostat: Make sure the thermostat is properly calibrated and that the temperature setting is not set too high. If the thermostat is damaged, it may need to be replaced.
3. Check the heating element: The heating element can fail, causing the heater to turn off. You may need to replace the heating element if this is the case.
4. Check the limit switch: If the limit switch is defective, it can cause the heater to turn off. Replace the limit switch if necessary.
5. Check the wiring: Make sure the wiring to the heater is securely connected and that there are no loose or frayed wires. If there are any issues with the wiring, you may need to have it repaired.

If none of these steps resolve the issue, it may be necessary to have the heater serviced by a professional.

It appears to be an over-temperature safety. How To Reset Over -Temperature Safety Control: This heater is provided with an over-temperature safety control that will turn the heater off if the heater overheats. If this control operates, a red warning light, visible through the front of the grille, will illuminate to alert the owner that the heater is off and requires attention. 1. Turn the heater off at the thermostat or disconnect power at the circuit breaker for at least 10 minutes to allow the heater to cool and the safety control to reset. 2. When the heater has cooled, check to see if the heater is blocked or excessively dirty as these conditions may cause overheating. Remove any blockages and/or refer to the Cleaning Heater section for cleaning instructions if dirty. 3. Turn circuit breaker on, reset thermostat to desired setpoint, and verify the heater is operating normally. 4. If the heater malfunctions again and the red light illuminates, disconnect power at the circuit breaker and have the heater inspected by a qualified electrician. https://www.marleymep.com/system/files/node/file/field-file//5200-11214-000_rseries.pdf ..

Heater could be burnt out. Check all electrical connections first.

It is the coils they can't take the heat so the hoter it is the more vibration from heater
